Courts
After experimenting with custom-made courts during the previous year's tournament, the NCAA began importing custom-made identical portable courts and Spalding backboard supports (if needed) to all tournament sites in 2010. The custom court began with the 1986 Final Four and was expanded for identical courts in 2007 for the regional semi-final and final round sites, before being used for all sites starting in 2010.
